Welp, time to toggle some settings.
If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."
There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

My bank account will end the year severely maimed, and it's been the worst freelance year in a while (also due to twitter deletion - no more generous print sales).
If you'd like to help, no better way than getting a print or 2 now...

Inprnt does nonstop promos and it's great! Posters (and maybe other select items) are 45% off right now!
I think that's actually the best format for my DE prints... maybe some happy buyer can confirm?

Less than 48 hours to go on the ENDLESS FANTASIA Kickstarter, y'all! The campaign ends on Monday morning! If you've been on the fence about backing it, now's the time to take the plunge!
We're currently at just over $37,000. I wonder if we can hit 40K? 🤔

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.
OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Gross, creators should have full control of their presentation.
YouTube is secretly using AI to edit people's videos

while the web isn't ideal for games, it could be good for sharing snippets, gamejams etc.
